Conference "The Death of Law? Machines, Technology, and Algorithms Deciding" to address the impact of technology on legal systems.
Tallinn University’s "The Death of Law? Machines, Technology, and Algorithms Deciding" conference on 3.-4. october 2024 will explore the growing influence of AI on law, questioning if this marks the end of law as we know it.
On October 3-4, 2024, Tallinn University will host an international conference "The Death of Law? Machines, Technology, and Algorithms Deciding." This pivotal event will delve into the profound impact of digitalization and artificial intelligence on the legal landscape. The conference will feature distinguished scholars, as Guliano Amato, Francisco J. Ansuátegui Roig, Frederick Schauer, Gerald Postema, and Francisco J. Ansuátegui Roig who will lead discussions on the future of law in an era increasingly dominated by technology.
The core question of the conference is: Is the growing reliance on algorithms and machine-driven decision-making signaling the "death" of law as we know it? Participants will explore how these technological advancements might alter fundamental legal principles, particularly the roles of free will and human judgment in a world where rules are increasingly dictated by machines.
Bringing together experts from Europe and the United States, this conference will offer a platform for rigorous debate on whether this shift towards technological dominance marks the end of law's traditional role in society. Attendees can expect to gain valuable insights into the future of legal practice as it adapts to an increasingly digital and automated world.
